Today it is super hot almost 100 deg. so this summer I added a new face in my- living room , garage, hobby-room.  It is powered to rotate while on, I have a lot of coolers and this one is sure to be my #1 and is super quiet you could still hear a pin drop in the room while it is running .2139944712_20180611_184000_HDR-11.jpg.53912cd2934cadfada5212395a12c37e.jpg

well last time to adjust the fit and finish of the finished door frame I'm  going to nail it I am done with this side .I took a bit off the corner and mid way up now the frame will not twist any more .  wile I made the wood I had left the wood 1/8'' to tall all the way around to do this part here sand to fit the body I am proud  of the finished work it should  be real fast to paint not much wrong just block sand it all 5 to 10 times to get it spot on . paint it black to see the work real soon  .--kyle1591242750_20180613_175656_HDR-11.jpg.e3e1a99376ea9b89e89f3699ddf8b331.jpg

the helicopters that you have seen in your life how are most of them held together 90% glue the vibration is the utmost at take off I have built many . that is the new rivets to say the least.    Hysol glue 8 -3/8-24 nuts to a steel sheet and bolt  500 hp. down .   that is why I used glue when my kids, kids are playing on this car I will not care just let them have fun on it like all the rest of my cars .     1591242750_20180613_175656_HDR-11.jpg.e3e1a99376ea9b89e89f3699ddf8b331.jpg

Been reading sligermachine forums wood topics. I have a 26 Buick Standard 4dr and like everyone else the wood is bad. You mentioned that you had paper patterns. I’m hoping the bottom body frame and cowl patterns would work for my sedan. Most of the rear body is intact and I can copy that. Do you think you could help or know anyone who could. Be happy to buy patterns it would sure make it easier. This was my dads car he bought in 63. My name is Herb. Thanks

I have been real busy . as my son has handed back the machine shop back to me .

  I have been cleaning my machine shop up 50 Ton of left over shafts  and steel plate i have took to the scrap yard in the past 2 month . Man the price so steel is down to nothing and the price of steel went up 400 percent in the last 6 weeks . I cant wate till are steel foundry's are up and running it will help a lot .
